I think this is bios pass? There are two ways - shortcircuiting bios pins or parallel method. Anyway you must disasemble your computer. Try to remove bios battery first (its under keyboard) for two hours. It's a very small chance this will help. When removing battery does nothing, you must search on google which bios pins to shortcircuit in your model. Problem is if you don't have manual/tech scheme for your machine. Try to download it from manufacturer website. You can use a parallel method, but it is harder. Shortcircuiting really works, one guy on fixya was fine with bios pass. Wish to help you more, but I cant, I have the same problem with Fujitsu Siemens, and so on, no solutions, no tech scheme :(
Finally you can use a universal and manufacturer password, search for these two, For universal, you must check what kind and version of bios you have. It usually shows when you just starting computer.

Purchased device from a pawn shop who states a customer locked it in the store. brought it and researched on line and it appears only sending it to garmin will work. Hard to believe no one has figured it...

If a customer had locked the unit in a pawn shop, it would unlock in the same pawn shop as this would be the security location. And why would you buy a GPS you could not use? You have three options for unlocking a PIN locked Garmin GPS:

1 - Enter the correct PIN
2 - Take the unit to the location at which the PIN was entered
3 - Send the unit back to Garmin

No one has "figured it out yet" and there is no "fix" because this is a security design and not a flaw in the unit. It is to prevent someone from using a stolen GPS. If there were a workaround, the feature would be useless.

I bought a garnim nuvi 205w from a pawn shop it has a password on it. Is there a code to unlock this unit. My next step is to send it to garmin or back to the pawn shop.

There's a small hole near the power jack. With the unit plugged in, use a paper clip and push in LIGHTLY into this hole. It will reset the unit back to factory specs.

Barred samsung tocco

the problem here is that the guy in the pawn shop probably didnt check the phone. I would blame the guy who sold it to the pawn shop guy, but ultimately i would say pawn shop guy is in the wrong for selling faulty goods. Unfortunately, due to the methodology involved in unlocking the phone, he is no longer liable for any problems with it. I'm sorry, the only thing you can legitimately do is sell it for spare parts. Alternatively, you can take it to another dodgy phone shop, and ask them to reinstall its flash firmware, but it might not be possible for this phone.

Bought a garmin 760 gps on e-bay seller was a pawn shop and unit requires a pin numer to use unit. How do I clear old pin number and install a new one?

Unfortunately, even if you perform master reset on Garmin GPS unit, it does not reset Garmin Lock security feature, which password-protect most Garmin electronic devices to deter theft. If you forget the PIN or password unlock code to unlock the Garmin unit, the best solution is to bring it to Garmin to get unlocked. “Secure Location” does not unlock a locked Garmin unit either as it’s only a temporary fix as when it’s turn on outside the security location, the device is locked again."

So unfortunately, there is only one option: You have to send your nüvi into the Garmin, who can unlock it. Remember original receipt.
